Two new issues: a no-bed-rotting trial + a enjoyable allowance

These two gadgets are fairly unrelated however I’m gonna throw them into the identical publish as a result of I AM THE BOSS AROUND HERE. 

A no-bed rotting trial

Ok, so, you guys know I usually set my morning alarm early sufficient to permit for a while in mattress spent rotting on my cellphone. I do issues like play my New York Times phrase video games, test my social media, scan the headlines, learn my e mail, and so forth.

If I simply did a fast run via this stuff, I feel this may be comparatively innocent.

But you understand how it’s when you’re comfortable in your mattress along with your cellphone…it’s simple to simply KEEP ON bed-rotting far longer than you imply to.

And that is very true on days and not using a “Get up!” deadline, comparable to days while you don’t should go to work. 

Sooo, I’m within the midst of a self-imposed two-week trial of Not Rotting in Bed When I Wake Up, simply to see if it makes an enormous distinction in how my days go. 

Why?

Well, mornings are truthfully once I’m at my finest. So I don’t need to spend that point of day rotting on my cellphone! I can do this later within the day when I’m already reasonably spent.

Also related: I began truly engaged on the ground as a nurse this week.

I’ve to be able to get report from the evening nurse at 7 am, and since I’m new and sluggish, it’s endorsed to get to work a half hour early to learn via affected person charts and get report paperwork prepared.

Sooo, if I need to do this with out having to stand up even earlier, I must skip my morning bed-rotting. 

After my two-week trial is up, I’ll let you understand how it went and what I’ve concluded.

A fun-money allowance

I had thought-about this concept previously however by no means adopted via. So I’m saying it publicly! 

Sometimes, we frugal-at-heart folks have a tough time truly spending our cash.

Of course, I feel saving cash is sweet. (Duh!)

But there are additionally joy-inducing methods to spend cash, and it’s a little bit of a disgrace to reside life with out experiencing that generally.

Of course, I acknowledge that not everybody is able to price range for fun-money spending. But there are positively instances the place we frugal folks do have some wiggle room and nonetheless fail to make the most of it. 

I now have my nurse pay, which suggests I’m within the joyful place of getting wiggle room. 

So, I’m going to present myself a bit of enjoyable cash allowance after which allow you to all know the way I spend it every month! 

I used to be considering of $50/month to begin with, and I can see how that goes.

Or hmmm, perhaps $80/month can be good, as a result of that principally offers me $20/week to play with.

What do you suppose my fun-money price range must be? And do you need to strive not mattress rotting together with me?
